UNSPSC 72141204: Dock construction service

The building and repair of docks owned by others

UNSPSC 72141204 Dock construction service is a Commodity code capturing the design, fabrication, and installation of boat docks, fishing piers, floating mooring systems, and related waterfront structures that state and local governments solicit to provide public water access, recreational facilities, and marina infrastructure improvements. Recent solicitations show state and local jurisdictions purchasing new dock and pier construction, rehabilitation of existing structures, floating launch systems, and integrated shoreline stabilization with dock components.

Issuing bodies span counties, cities, regional water authorities, and state natural resource departments across Florida, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, California, Maryland, and the Carolinas. Florida municipalities and counties—including the City of Tampa, Escambia County, Brevard County, the City of Sarasota, and the City of St. Petersburg—appear frequently as repeat buyers seeking marine infrastructure rehabilitation and new construction. Representative recent opportunities include Escambia County's ITB for Bob Sikes Fishing Pier South rehabilitation in Pensacola Beach with a pre-bid conference on July 2, 2026 and bids due July 27, 2026; the City of West Sacramento's ITB 25065 for Public Boat Dock Debris Deflector Repair with sealed bids due July 10, 2025 at $350,000; the Brazos River Authority's design-build RFB 26-1377 for Lake Limestone Park loading dock and fishing pier with bids due May 7, 2026; and the City of Stonecrest's ITB CITB-0011-26 for a kayak launch dock with parking lot improvements at Everett Park, bids due August 4, 2026. Activity concentrates in coastal states and water-dependent communities in Florida, Texas, the Carolinas, and the Mid-Atlantic, with secondary activity in inland riverfront jurisdictions. Most recent solicitations impose Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements when federal funding is present, mandatory pre-bid meetings and site visits, performance and payment bonds at 100 percent of contract value, and environmental compliance with Army Corps of Engineers permits and state water quality standards; several include living shoreline, mangrove restoration, or cathodic protection components alongside structural work.
